3D Fluid Simulation using OpenCL*
Intel Corporation
Features / Description
The sample demonstrates shallow water solver implemented in OpenCL*. It relies on flux splitting method for solving the approximated Navier-Stokes equations. The algorithm operates on 2D maps of velocity and height, calculates updated maps for the next time step. The updated maps are rendered with pixel and vertex shaders (Microsoft DirectX* 10).
- Efficient solver implementation in OpenCL*
- 2D maps of velocity and height as inputs, and updated maps for visualization
- Implemented the way to transparently benefit from auto-vectorization
It also demonstrates a CPU-optimized implementation of the shallow water fluid effects and shows how to perform the following:
- Implement calculation kernels using OpenCL* C99
- Parallelize these kernels by running several work-groups in parallel
- Organize host-device data exchange
- Visualize results using pixel and vertex shaders (Microsoft DirectX* 10).
- Supported Devices CPU, Intel® HD Graphics 4000/2500
- Complexity level: Advanced
